It's a Golden Life

One of the little girls in my daycare wore boots one day last week. Malachi loved them from the moment they came off her feet. She was generous enough to let him wear them ALL day until she left. Parting was sweet sorrow. For he didn't know mommy was already in search for some boots for this little guy. I ended up finding a pair of green frog rainboots, just like these, on craigslist! He looks rather adorable in them.

My wonderful hubby got these for me! They are my favorite, tulips and one of my favorite color flowers! Before After Little Doll Yes, I cut his hair!!! Oh my. He. looks. ADORABLE! He can see now without squinting his eyes and tilting his head up to the ceiling just to look down at you! Little princess is just that. She is crawling everywhere and into everything. She has no teeth yet, but I keep feeling in her mouth and am SURE there are some teeth somewhere beneath the surface. That does not keep her from trying to eat everything. This little girl loves her some food. She loves bread, green beans (any veggies really), cereal and yogurt! She puts her brothers eating habits to shame. She is still a petite 15 lbs at 7 1/2 months old. How dare you eat in front of this little piggy and not share, she will be sure to tell you exactly how she feels.

Well, The day has come. Malachi is independent beyond independent. He is dressing himself. Yesterday marked the beginning of a new era with this kid. As if he didn't look insane enough, marked by his uncontrollable desire to move about every three seconds, he decided to dress himself. Outfit of the day: Cars pajama shirt, tiki man swimming shorts (what, swimming shorts in FEBRUARY!? What are they even doing in his drawer?! Yes, swimming shorts, we may or may not, potentially go to a hotel with a swimming pool that is indoors this winter) A pair of shark pj shorts on top of the swimming shorts (the swimming shorts served as underwear?) One teal sock and one lime green sock. Interesting. Cute. Very cute! He also decided to start speaking full on sentences, with inflection and tone of understanding. He asks questions with a rise at the end. As well, he pushes me out of the bathroom when he has to go now saying, "NO mommy, get out." Little stinker is smarter than all get out....
